.SH NAME
GENLIB_ELM \- Creates a single element bus name for netlist
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
.if n \{\
.ft B \}
.if t \{\
.ft CR \}
#include <genlib.h>
char \(**GENLIB_ELM(busname, index);
char \(**busname;
long index;
.ft R
.fi
.so man1/alc_origin.1
.SH PARAMETERS
.TP 20
\fIbusname\fP
Common signal name for a bus
.TP 20
\fIindex\fP
Index of the demanded signal belonging to the bus
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fIELM\fP Creates a single element bus names valid for the genlib netlist
functions that manipulate the signal, and/or connector, concept.
They are:
.RS
\fBLOINS\fP(3)
.br
\fBLOCON\fP(3)
.RE
The \fIindex\fP argument gives the index of the name to be created.
.br
This function has a constant equivalent, it means that if the \fIindex\fP
value is known at compilation time, one should better use,
for readability purposes, the "[n]" construct.
.SH EXAMPLE
.nf
.if n \{\
.ft B \}
.if t \{\
.ft CR \}
#include <genlib.h>
main()
{
int b = 0;
int e = 12;
